Syracuse basketball enters the 2023-24 season following the most significant offseason change in program history. Retired is legendary head coach Jim Boeheim and taking over is Adrian Autry. Autry brought in multiple transfers, including former McDonald's All-American and local star JJ Starling along with Chance Westry, Kyle Cuffe and Naheem McLeod. In addition, the Orange was able to retain players such as Judah Mintz, Justin Taylor, Chris Bell, Quadir Copeland, Maliq Brown, Benny Williams, and others despite the coaching change.

Beyond the roster construction, coach Autry is also looking to change how Syracuse plays. The Orange is expected to be a much more up tempo offensive team while switching from its patented 2-3 zone to man to man on the defensive end. There is palpable buzz from Syracuse fans hoping to return to the level of basketball that was so constant over most of coach Boeheim's career.

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting. EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans. After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years. Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports. Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
